HYDRO-OPTICS, BIOLOGY, & INSTRUMENTATION LABORATORIES

HOBI Labs is home of a wide range of scientific-grade instruments for measuring water optical properties and the spectral light field. Our instruments are designed to operate in the harsh oceanic environment with reliability, accuracy and minimal maintenance... HOBI Labs was founded in 1997 by Robert Maffione, Ph.D. (President & Chief Scientist), Nancy Alimonti (Chief Financial Officer), and David Dana (Chief Engineer)... In 1999, HOBI Labs also introduced the a-Beta and c-Beta (known to us as the "Beta Boys"), unique instruments that measured both attenuation and backscattering, to support studies of visibility and laser system performance.
